Know Your Orioles 40-man: Danny Coulombe
The newest Orioles reliever in action on Saturday.How he arrived: Acquired from Minnesota Twins for cash considerations, 3/27/23, contract purchased 3/28
Who left: Rule 5 pick Andrew Politi designated for assignment 3/28/23
The basic question that I have always tried to answer in this series is: Why is this guy here? When the Orioles were bad and not expected to be good any time soon, this was usually an easy enough question to answer. Some fringe acquisition or another had just enough potential to make it worth bringing him around to see if he could be polished into something. Most of the time, this did not happen. There were periodic successes, like Cionel Pérez.
